Reasons to Be Thankful for Being (Un)Dead

On this Thanksgiving morning, let me list some of the reasons that I am thankful for being (un)dead:

1) I get to spend time with family again.

2) Being able to walk the Shadowland...a wondrously beautiful and dangerous place!

3) Appearances no longer matter--I'm dead, who cares how I look?

4) Low expecatations of others--hey, he's dead, we can't expect him to remember our birthdays or anniversaries.

5) The Rat Race has a completely new meaning--just stay ahead of the little buggers so they don't nibble off my ears!

6) Being able to stay up all night to watch the late games on the West Coast...and SportsCenter all night long!

7) Long, deep conversations with the Professor! (Go Tigers!)

8) Discovering a long lost Sister-in-Spirit in Ravyn and discovering her many wonderful qualities. (As well as Betsy!)

9) Seeing the Frau streaking through the woods as changes into Bear form. (Even if she did have to sit on me!)

10) Seeing from Cerrydwen that embracing the Shadow Within doesn't mean that you fall to Evil, that we each make the choice to Do Evil or to help others.


Here are some reasons to be less thankful for being (un)dead:

1) Coke and Mentos doesn't make much of a Thanksgiving feast!

2) Being unable to truly feel the touch of another person.

3) Knowing that in any given situation, I am pretty much the ugliest person in the room (or on the street, etc).

4) To finally discover what it is to be fully human, to be fully alive, after you are already dead.

5) To see a beautiful, nekkid, hindside of a ravishingly beautiful woman, and be completely unable to do anything about it!


Happy Thanksgiving to One and All!

You just can't let that last one go can you? *G*

Wonder if we could turn you into one of those fountains like they are showing on tv with the coke and mentos, that would make the next holiday rather entertaining :)

Hope you all had a wonderful thanksgivine!
